A Physiological Curiosity.
St. Martin, the man who has an opening
into his stomach, produced by a gun shot
wound, is in New York, and a number of
the physioians of that city have been ex.
perimenting with the view to ascertain the
time required to digest food. A thermo
meter introduced into his stomach, through
the opening, rose to one hundred and one
Fahrenheit. The carrot, Dr. Bunting
says, in consumed in five to six hours.--
Bare roast beef will thoroughly digest in
an hour and a half. Melted butter will
not digest at all, but float about in the sto
mach. Lobster is comparatively easy of
digestion. Upon the application of the
gastric juice to a piece of purple tissue pa
per, the color at one° faded. In relation
to the patient a health, Dr. Bunting obser
ved that it had been uniformly excellent
having, since his recovery from the effects
of the wound, supported a large family by
Iris daily labor. These experiments do
not differ materially from those made by
Dr. Beaumont twenty years ago. Mr St.
Martin is at present a little upwards of fif
ty years of age, a spare frame, but appa
rently capable of considerable endurance.
He is in excellent bodily health, and it has
not prevented him trom pursuing active
and severe labors. If he does -not keep a
compress to the aperture in.drinking wa
ter, or swallowing anything else, the whole
contents of his stomach trill pass out thro'
that opening. Through this opening
comes out a small part of the stomach, i.
e , the inner coat, which shows its different
appearances--thick or swollen when under
the work of digestion, and thinner when
the digestion is over. St. Martin is on his
way to Europe.
Kind Wordy.
They never blister the tongue or lips.-•-
And we never heard one of mental troub
le arising from this quarter. Though they
do not cost much, yet they accomplish
much. They help one's good.nature and
good will. Soft words soften our own
soul. Angry words are fuel to the flame
of wrath, and make the blaze more fierce.
Kind words made other people good
natured. Cold words freeze people, and
hot words scorch them, and bitter words
make them wrathful. There is such a
rush of Hi other kinds of words in our
dayr, that it seems desirable to find kind
words a chance among them. There are
vain words, and idle words, and hasty
words, and spiteful words, and silly wordy,
and empty words, and profane words, boi-
sterous words, and warlike words. Kind
words also produce their own image on
men's souls. They smooth and quiet, and
comfort the hearer. They shame him out
of his sour, morose, unkind feelings. We
have not yet begun to use kind words in
such abundance as they ought to be used.

AMOS LAWRENCE'S POCKET-BOOS--Fa
ther Taylor of Boston said in a public ad
dress:--t have this' day seen Mr. Amos
Lawrence's pocket book. It is such a
pocket book as Was never made before. Oa
one side of it is printed, in gilt letters,—
What shall it profit a man if he gain the
whole world and lose his own soul You
open another fold and read, "l'he gold is
mine, milli the Lord of Hosts." On still
another fold is printed, •'lle that giveth
to the poor lentleth to the Lord." 1 asked
Mr. Lawrence what all this cts for. He
told me that he remembered that as men
grew old they sometimes grew selfish, and
every time he looked at his money he wan
ted to be reminded of the Gospel, by which
he ought to use his worldly goods, and
therefore he kept money in each of these
folds of his pocket-boon for all good uses
which Divine Providence might suggest.
HOLISM, A CHRISTIAN PRIVILEOR.-.-
Do ntt look upon holiness, (writes a mo
ther to her child ) in the light of conformi
ty to a law, a mere submission to certain
restrictive precepts. Luok ujon holiness
as happiness—the only true happiness
To speak of it as the duty of a Christian,
is a low and inadequate view ; it is the pri
vilege of the Christian. The power to be
holy is one of the greatest blessings that
Christ has purchased for us, and bestows
on us through the gift of the Holy spirit.
Dear reader, examine yourself by the
test. Is holiness regarded by you as a
happiness or a hardship ? If you do not
enjoy holiness and follow after it, you could
not enjoy Heaven, for it is a state of su
preme happiness, because it is a state of
perfect holiness.
EAT Iv.—An Englishman of recent im
portation dropped into a restaurant in this
city, a few days since, and made a hearty
meal, topping ofl with a piece of pie.—
The latter, upon-taming, he found it to be
cold,and, calling the 'tlitttle black boy,"
who stood near, he said to him , Talcu
this pie to the fire and 'eat it' His con
sternation was great when Sainbo walked
to the stove and quietly devoured the
pie.
Hoeing Colloquy.--" Peter, Peter, I

brother ono day, as they were digging over
a heap of manure.
'Whar is he Joe V
'Why right dar—don't you see 'im V
'No—hit 'im wid de hoe !'
Joo hit the toad a crack, which brought
Peter to the ground.

"Look here si oony, I dont know what
kind of a team you're drivin' now but I
tell you that if it means anything about
fightin,' I'm your man 1" replied the fire
nian, making a pass at spooney but the
dandy took a sudden notion to run to the

Colleges of the United States, and the greater
port of whose life has been spent in the first Hos
pitals of London, Paris Philadelphia, awl else

with ringing in the head and cart when asleep,
great nervousness, being alarmed at sudden
sounds, and bashfulness, with frequent blushing
attended sometimes with derangement of mind,
were cured immediately.
A Certain I,isease
When the misguided and imprudent votary
of pleasure finds he hiss imbibed the seeds of this
painful disease. it to too often happens that an
ill-timed sense of shame, or dread ut d iscovery,
deters him from applying to those who from ed
ucation and respectability, can alone befriend
bins, delaying till the constitutional symptoms
of this horrid disease make their appearance,
such as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose,
nocturnal pains in the bead and limbs, dimness
of sight, deafness, nudes on the shin bone,, and
arms, blotches on the head, face and extremities,
progressing with frightful rapidity, till at last
the palate of the mouth or the hones or she ease
fall in, and the victim of this awful disease be
comes a horrid object of commiseration, till
death puts it period to his dreadful sufferings, by
sending him to uthut ',mune Irons whence no
traveller returns," To such. therefore, Dr.
Johnston pledges himself to }reserve the most
inviolable secrecy, and from his extensive prac
tice in the first Hospitals of Europe and Ameri
ca, ho can confidently recommend 0 safe and
speedy cure to the utilbrtunate victim of this hot
rid disease.
It is a melancholy fact that thousands fill vic
tims to this horrid disease owing to the unskil
fulness of ignorant pretenders who by the use of
that deadly poison Mercury, ruin the cons.i
tution. and either send the unfortunate sittlerer
to an untimely grave, or make the residue of his

MEDICAL ADVERTISEMENTS.
Greatest Medical Discovery of
the Age.
Dr. Kennedy, ur itexbu;y, hat discovered in
ono of onr common pasture weeds a remedy t!iut

EWl5rl CY:t
from the worst scrofula down ton common pin,
Ile has tried it in over 1100 cases, anti never
failed except in two (Nisei, (both thunder h t 0,...)
lie has now in his ilossessinn over two hundred
certificates of its virtue, all within twenty tunes
of Boston.
Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing
sore mouth.
One to three bottles will curo the worst kind
of Pimples on the face.
Two or throe bottles will cure the system of
Biles.
Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst
case of Erysipelas.
One to two bottles ire warranted to cure all
Lum ,r in the Eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to core running of
the cars mid bliithes unone the hair.
Four to six bottles are warranted to cure,
corrupt and running steers.
One bottle will cure scaly corruption of the
ekm.
Too to three bottles are warranted to mire
the worst ease of ringworm.
Two to three t.cttlea are warranted to cure
the moat desperate case of rhettmatiam.
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure
the Fah rheum.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case
of scrofula.
A benefit it always experienced from the first
bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when
the above quantity is taken.
Render, I peddled over a thousand bottles
of this in the vicinity of Boston. I knew the
effect of it in every ease. Su sure us water will
extinguish tire, so sure will this cure humor.—
I never sold a bottle of it but that sold another;
after a trial it always speaks for itself. There
are two *Hug+ about this herb that appear to
me surprising; first it grows in our pastures in
some places quite plentiful and vet its value
has never been known until I discovered it in
1846—second that it should curs all kinds of
humor.
In order to give some idea of the sudden rise
and greet popularity of the discovery. I will
state that in A_pril, 1859, I peddled it and sold
shout six ',shires per day—in April , 1854, I sold
over one thousand per day of it.
Some of the wholesale Druggists who have
Leon in business twenty and thirty years, say
that nothing in the annals of patent medicines
was ever like it. There is a universal potties
of it front all quarters.
In my own practice I always kept it strictly
for humor—but since its inttoduction as a gen
eral family medicine, great and winderlul vir
tues have been found in it that I never suspect
ed.
Several raves of epileptic }lN—a disc.o
which was always considered' incurable, have
been cured by a few bottles. 0, what a mercy
if it will prove eflectual in all cases of that
dreadful malady—there aro but few who have
more of it than I have. • _
I knoo of several cases of Dropsy, nil of
whom aged people cured by it. For the vari
ous diseases of the Liver, Siek Head tche, Dys
pepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague, Pain in the
Side, Diseases of the Spine. and particularly
in diseasea of the Kidney - a, Bm., thin discovery
has done more good than any medicine ever
known.
No change of diet ever necessary—eat the
best you cue get end enoug h of it.
